In particular, we are interested in building the LHC Micro Model for the purpose of displaying, along with several useful infographics, in the hallway of the Physics & Astronomy Department in Franklin & Marshall College. We believe that a continually-growing interest in particle physics, heralded by recent discoveries such as the famed Higgs boson, are reasons why students and the public should be informed about some of the technical aspects of particle detectors.
